"We're thrilled to partner with the Grand Ole Opry to document that moment when a new artist gets to walk out and play on the Opry stage for the very first time, and give our customers a behind-the-scenes look at the experience."

Pete Fisher, Vice President and General Manager, Grand Ole Opry added: "Every aspiring country artist has the dream of playing the Opry, and becoming a part of its history. This is the first time we've been able to properly capture that magical moment in a meaningful way and we look forward to presenting this unique experience with Country Deep."
